Tempe Window Replacement
Dual-pane Low-E replacement windows and sliding patio doors, chosen for how hard the desert sun hits each side of your home.
Window replacement in Tempe usually starts with the same story: original aluminum sliders from the 1960s, 70s or 80s, single-pane glass that turns hot to the touch by mid-afternoon, and gaps that let dust in during every haboob.
We measure each opening, remove the old window, and set a new dual-pane unit that’s shimmed level, insulated and sealed to the stucco. The glass is picked by wall: the west and south sides of a Tempe house take far more sun than the north side, so they get glass rated to block more heat.
Whether a window job needs a City of Tempe permit depends on the scope. Swapping a window into the same opening is a different job from cutting a wall to make an opening wider or adding a new door. Tempe's Building Safety division says minor single-family projects may be eligible for over-the-counter plan review and permitting (480-350-4311), and permit questions go to permitcenter@tempe.gov. We confirm what your project needs before anything is ordered.
You get a written estimate that lists every window and door by size, style, frame, glass and installation method.
Each service has its own page with what's involved, your options and the questions we hear most.

| Frame | How it handles heat | Upkeep | Good fit for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl | Insulated chambers slow heat through the frame | No painting; wash and go | Most replacement projects |
| Fiberglass | Stable in heat, expands about as much as glass | Paintable, low upkeep | Darker colors and large openings |
| Aluminum (thermally broken) | Metal conducts heat unless a break is built in | Low upkeep | Slim modern sightlines |
| Wood-clad | Wood inside, protective cladding outside | Interior finish care | Homes where wood trim matters |
Most Tempe homes end up with vinyl or fiberglass. We show you samples and help match frame color to your stucco and any HOA rules.
Dual-pane units with a Low-E coating, rated by U-factor and SHGC for the wall they face.
Each opening measured on its own, because older Tempe homes are rarely perfectly square.
Insulating foam in the gap and a clean sealant joint to the stucco keep out heat, dust and monsoon rain.
West and south windows get glass with a lower SHGC, since they take the long afternoon sun.

Oxidized single-pane aluminum sliders become clean, sealed dual-pane vinyl windows in the same openings.
Illustration of a typical before-and-after, not a specific client project.
Most single windows are swapped in a few hours, and a typical house is finished in one to two days of installation. Replacement windows are built to your measurements, so waiting for the order to arrive is usually the longest part. You get a schedule with your written estimate.
It depends on the scope. Putting a new window in the same opening is simpler than enlarging an opening or adding a door. Tempe's Building Safety division says minor single-family projects may qualify for over-the-counter permitting, and we confirm what your project needs before ordering.
Dual-pane glass with a Low-E coating is the standard choice. For west and south walls, look for a low Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), which means less of the sun's heat passes through the glass.
Not always. Many homeowners start with the west and south windows that take the most sun, or the old aluminum sliders that leak dust. Doing the whole house at once keeps frames and colors matched and means one install visit.
We work across Tempe, including Tempe Gardens, Broadmor, Lakeshore, Shalimar, Warner Ranch and North Tempe.
Whether it's one foggy slider or every window in the house, a replacement goes better with a plan for glass, frames and installation method. Call 602-343-7799 or request an estimate online.
